GMC has priced the all-new Canyon pickup in Canada at $20,600, not including a dealer freight charge of $1,695. The automaker also announced deliveries of the midsize pickup to Canadian dealers will commence today.
Just like its Colorado platform mate, the Canyon is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine producing 200 horsepower. However the Canyon will come slightly better equipped than the Colorado, with standard LED lights, a four-way power driver’s seat, CornerStep rear bumper, and 16-inch aluminum wheels.
Apart from the base model, the SLE trim with 2WD and an extended cab will start at $28,800 not including freight. The SLT trim adds aluminum interior trim, a soft-touch instrument panel, EZ Lift and Lower tailgate, an eight-inch diagonal colour-touch radio with Intellilink and OnStar’s 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot. The 4WD SLT model will ring in at $38,350 not including freight and will add the 3.6-liter V6 engine, leather interior, automatic climate control, 18-inch aluminium wheels, remote start and a locking rear differential. Other options include a Bose premium seven-speaker audio system and the GearOn accessory system.
Additionally, GMC says every 2015 Canyon will come with their ‘Pro Grade Protection’, which includes two years or 40,000 kilometers of standard scheduled maintenance. There is also a five-year/160,000-kilometre powertrain warranty and a three-year, 60,000-kilometre New Vehicle Limited warranty. More detailed pricing and fuel economy figures will be revealed closer to the Canyon’s on-sale date.
Comment
And yet GM charge $60k for the top of the range Holden Colorado in Australia. It’s inferior to the North American Colorado. It doesn’t even have leather seats.
